If your priority is gaming and you want superior graphics, the Eluktronics RP-15 has a higher-resolution display which can offer more detailed visuals but may reduce battery life compared to the ASUS TUF Gaming F15. The Eluktronics also has marginally better screen color accuracy, which is great for creative work like photo editing. However, the ASUS might save you money and includes more storage out of the box. If you're looking for better battery life and portability for on-the-go use, the ASUS might be the better option as the RP-15 is slightly heavier and has a smaller battery capacity. Both have similar performance for general use and engineering tasks, but keep in mind that the ASUS has a lower screen refresh rate than the RP-15, making the RP-15 more suitable for fast-paced games.

The Eluktronics RP-15 has a better screen than the ASUS TUF Gaming F15 for general use, gaming and AI, and engineering and design.
For general use, the ASUS TUF Gaming F15 may have a decent resolution and sufficient brightness but may lack the panel quality found in the Eluktronics RP-15, which boasts a higher quality panel and better overall resolution and brightness, enhancing visibility and clarity. When it comes to engineering and design, the Eluktronics RP-15 pulls ahead with superior color accuracy and a wider color gamut, rendering it more suitable for professional color work, whereas the ASUS might fall short in displaying precise colors. For gaming and 3D tasks, however, both laptops may underperform due to their lower refresh rates, which can impede the smoothness of fast-paced visuals that these applications typically require.

Allen Ngo | March 2022
"Aside from all the chassis updates, the new TUF Gaming is most notable for its much higher TGP target of 140 W compared to only 95 W on the previous generation. PC makers everywhere are using the same GeForce GPUs this year since Nvidia has yet to launch the successor to the mobile RTX 3000 series. The more demanding processors of the new TUF Gaming has directly impacted battery life and the size of the AC adapter. Don't expect runtimes to be longer than on the previous generation under most conditions and be prepared to carry around an even larger AC adapter than before."

"To conclude, I’m genuinely impressed with Eluktronics and what they have been able to deliver with the RP-15. You see this is all about maximizing performance, cooling, and giving users the most flexible I/O, and then wrapping it into a chassis that doesn’t feel super cheap. Let’s also not forget the price point, I think they have really nailed it in that department."
